Army Identifies Hero Cop
She's a mom first but now, Kimberly Munley is a hero. The Army identified her as the policewoman who stopped Major Nidal Malik Hasan yesterday as he shot fellow soldiers at Fort Hood. She wrote this on her Twitter page bio: "I live a good life....a hard one, but I go to sleep peacefully @ night knowing that I may have made a difference in someone's life." Yesterday, she made a huge difference in many lives.
From ABC News:
Base commander, Lt. General Robert Cone said wounded first responder Sgt. Kimberly Munley, who exchanged gunfire with Hasan and managed to shoot him four times despite being shot herself, put a stop to the carnage with her quick thinking and willingness to go head-to-head with the gun-wielding officer.
"She was quite effective, one of our most impressive young policemen," Cone said. "She walked up and basically engaged him. I think, certainly, this could've been far worse."
Cone said Munley spent Thursday night calling her fellow co-workers from her hospital bed to make sure everyone was OK.
